#JDVance #Iran #OilPrices #BenefitFraud #Knicks The U.S. Navy lifted its blockade of Iranian ports, U.S. Central Command announced in a post on X Thursday. The announcement came after Vice President JD Vance told reporters at a White House briefing that more than 12.5 million barrels of oil moved through the Strait of Hormuz overnight, and gas prices dropped below $4 a gallon Thursday. The Department of Justice (DOJ) charged 15 people—11 of them illegal immigrants—for allegedly stealing more than $1.4 million in benefit fraud in Massachusetts. These programs include Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP) food assistance, MassHealth, Social Security disability payments, housing assistance, and unemployment benefits, the DOJ reports. Thousands of Knicks fans pack the streets of New York City for a historic ticker-tape parade following their first NBA championship in 53 years. Jalen Brunson, Knicks captain and NBA Championship MVP, thanked his team and fans at the parade and got emotional when giving thanks to his family. "Without them, their sacrifice and everything—wouldn't be possible," he said. -- 📺 Watch NTD News 24/7 on cable, broadcast, and streaming: https://www.ntd.com/watch 00:00 NTD Evening News--6/18/2026 01:44 Oil Prices Drops as U.S.-Iran Deal Officially Takes Effects 05:25 Senate Reacts to U.S.-Iran Agreement 08:36 U.S. Announces 6-Month Review of NATO and U.S. Forces in Europe 11:36 DOJ Charges 11 Illegal Immigrants in $1.4M Fraud Case 14:21 DHS: UFC Terror Plot Ringleader an Illegal Immigrant 15:30 SCOTUS Loosens Gun Ban for Marijuana Users 17:33 DEA Continues Anti-Drug Operation in Macarthur Park 19:10 Magione Lawyers: No Longer Planning Psychiatric Defense 20:09 'Unbroken'Screens in Los Angeles, Hits 1 Million Streams 24:17 Hegseth: Iran Deal Built on U.S. Strength 25:44 U.S.-Iran Memorandum of Understanding Goes Into Effect 32:23 Is Iran Peace Deal a Good Things for the World? 34:58 Trump Presents Medal of Honor to Combat Veterans 36:01 Ukraine Drone Attack Hits Moscow Oil Refinery 38:06 White House Bids Farewell to Air Force One Jet 39:31 U.S. Seizes More Than 50 Drones Near World Cup Sites 40:11 New York Knicks Victory Parade 42:52 Bring it Back in 2027?
